About the project
Scope of work
- High-wall formwork
- Engineered bracing
- Controlled pour lifts
- Drainage & waterproofing
- Backfill & compaction
Height changes everything on a retaining wall: form pressure, bracing, pour rate, and the consequences of getting any of them wrong. This Ipswich wall took a serious grade change and turned it into usable yard.
We formed and poured the full height in controlled lifts, with drainage and waterproofing detailed behind the wall before backfill. The finished face came out of the forms clean enough to leave exposed.
